Giving of our time, talents and dollars to the
mission ministries supported by our church
is our opportunity to live God’s love. It is doing
that makes the most impact. It is doing that
makes a difference.
The mission ministries of this church are
international, national and local in scope. We work collectively with our Presbyterian brothers and sisters through the PC-USA Disaster Assistance Program to address problems affecting God's global family in this country and around the world. Our international ministry operates on a more personal basis through the Presbytery of Newton and its close relationship with the Nairobi Presbytery in east Africa.
Equally as important is our Local Mission Program. There are so many
wonderful organizations operating in our own community that deserve our
support and we attempt to provide that support in a way that is both financial and hands on.
Some of the mission programs that we support are listed below
